Friends of a Tyrant

by Jacob Parker   Aug 31, 2011


As conceited as your mind can get.
Bleeding through every pore,
"Look at me! My opinion is fact!"
just wait for footprints on your back.
I can't recall a time when,
you actually pulled through.
I don't recall a time when,
all maps pointed to you.
What exactly do you do?
Other than tell everyone who they are.
It's about time you took a look for yourself,
But I know that day is way too far,
off the broken pattern of sincerity.
our friendship is nothing of a charity.
You'll never know, you'll never show.
But I'm not surprised, through tired eyes,
I can now see the open road.
